Many foodservice professionals often refer to the tabletop as the most important three feet in the house. That's because the tabletop represents the aspect of the foodservice operation that diners interact with most. So it would seem logical, then, that most restaurant and foodservice operators would put in plenty of thought, minding every detail, when developing their tabletops (page 18). Unfortunately, the opposite is often true.Read more...
The concept of co-branding, meaning having two restaurants share the same space, is nothing new. Sometimes it works. Other times it does not. So what's the difference between successful and unsuccessful co-branding initiatives?Read more...
The Commerce Department reported weak September retail sales but restaurants enjoyed a fair increase. First-time jobless claims fell to a 14-year low. The Sysco/U.S. Foods merger may have hit a stumbling block. Malcolm Knapp is optimistic about casual restaurant sales. McDonald's is still searching for answers.Read more...

Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt has been on the cutting edge of its segment since the brand got off the ground in 1983. "You haven't seen anything yet," says Roger Clawson, Golden Spoon's franchising CEO. "In the next six months, we will revolutionize the frozen yogurt category."
Some would say the chain has already accomplished this feat. Back in the 1980s, Golden Spoon challenged creameries to add chocolate and candy to yogurt bases. Deemed the "ice cream lover's frozen yogurt," the operation's goal was to be known as the Haagen-Dazs of the category.
"Flavors are oriented to evoke an emotional connection with our customers," Clawson says. "Our fudge flavor will taste just like the Fudgesicle someone had as a kid."
Golden Spoon's innovative flavor profiles are not rolled out at the expense of the frozen yogurt's healthy profile. Most varieties are non-fat, gluten free and low in sugar. "We are the company that, 30 years ago, took a product people primarily ate for its healthier aspects and changed the formulation and flavor profile [to make it more decadent]," Clawson says. "It's why we have thrived for so long."
However, unlike category mainstay TCBY, which concentrated on expansion over the years, Golden Spoon focused on product innovation and the evolution of new flavors. This resulted in a high customer loyalty rate that has helped sustain the chain through difficult economic times.
With stores heavily concentrated in the southwestern states, in addition to overseas sites in Japan, the Philippines, Canada and soon in the Middle East, Golden Spoon remains true to its roots as a staple indulgence for those living in California's Orange County.
Its reach and exposure are about to expand. "We've been the quiet company in the industry for the last 30 years," Clawson says. "We have not had publicity behind our brand in the past, so we will expand on our marketing and increase spends and exposure in the next 12 to 18 months."
Although Clawson couldn't reveal the company's plan in detail prior to the roll out, he says Golden Spoon is looking at one to two product extensions that will increase the chain's reach and scope to customers.
"This will affect how and when our customers eat our products," he says.

so you pumped it to retirees while you were dumping it and denying its risk
What a guy
Hey Stevie.... Hows that MLPL that you recommended for retires.... I know you said you weren't interested in the unit value... yield only.... but hows that 30+% haircut feel
Hey.... some may want to nibble at MLPL when its yield goes to 15% in a few days
Well since the Fed is run by investment bankers... its the firms that they used to work for that know their direction before the rest of us... and rates have really only one direction to move.... and its what we are constantly monitoring Fed speak
There appears to be pressure from many different events...
The Saudi action of no production cuts (vs their lie last month of a cut) will drive oil down to the point where smaller frackers fold...
Its a problem because there will be no product to ship.... even though the producers are committed to pay for capacity whether they ship or they don't. If a fracker that with guaranteed capacity goes belly up those are dollars the pipelines can't immediately replace in the current environment
This oil glut is going to be a rather large issue because it has the potential to trigger a steep recession.... the GDP decrease from reduced production and lower commodity prices will be significant... it will result in serious job losses throughout the economy
I can't believe this is what the Saudi's want because it will result in low cost oil for a few years whereas a slight dip in production would bring them far more revenue overall
As this unfolds the specter of increase rates will dissipate but we have to wonder how many bullets the Fed has left in its gun.... QE 4 anyone???????
reduced production..... exports
But exports will drive down the price of oil worldwide... and expensive fracked production doesn't make sense at lower oil prices
and that would be the investment banks that hold the massive positions.... who are not afraid of paying the tax... believe that interest rates will be going up... and are taking their profit
rates up... MLPs down.... its always been that way
15% down in 2 weeks here at EPD... I think we could easily see a unit price below $30
again the only thing that stems the decline in unit value is a more aggressive growth in the distribution growth rate
IF you don't believe that EPD can trade to a 5+% yield... you probably never thought that EPD could go from less than 3.5% yield 2 weeks ago to its current 4.1%... and we got that 1/2 a cent in that time period
That's why this holder calls for a higher distribution
The capital outflows from Europe are what fed yesterdays ridiculous rally on the FED speak about interest rates
When we see "irrational exuberance" in the mkt the FED will act...
EPD may be the canary in the coal mine on this.... but many factors are at play..... first and foremost the collapse of the share price of energy producers (due to strong dollar)... this is dragging EPD downward with the sector
Strong dollar is really hurting the US energy industry... its crippling the price of WTI (and Brent) which has the oil frackers on the brink of losing money on every bbl.
Strong dollar is attracting foreign investment
Strong dollar means that US interest rates will rise
This creates a very tricky landscape for EPD to maneuver through in the near term
What I really wanted you to focus on first and foremost is the blowout preventer which is part of the well head and not part of the rig
Every well gets a brand spankin new one that conforms to new specs post Macando
If this is beyond your knowledge base why should anyone swallow anything else you post?
The risk with older rigs that have questionable blow out preventers is getting greater.
Cure your ignorance.... you post all day here as if you know something... you don't
research what you just said and cure your ignorance
and BTW older Rigs have the potential to work at a cheaper day rate at a profit than newer ones
The new ones have to have a rate that justifies the investment
there are some serious glut issues arising.... yet while they shouldn't affect EPD they sometimes can...
The Saudi's cut oil production in Aug by 40Kbbl/day... largest cut in a decade...
As to Nat Gas... they are producing so much to make up for last winters use the question is will they reduce production in time to prevent a glut.... there may be too many producing wells right now for that to be the case
Nat Gas could easily go into the low $3s
and yahoo is the worst offender... IF you pull EPD charts they appear to have split at a 1:4.... and the historical quote page is an out right joke
I'm thinking some of that rather large run was people thinking they were gonna get $2.88 on $40...
Some may have taken that profit and run
well your above facts are not in line with reality... and my sources feel that since ex div at least another 10 million shares have been sold short
negligent but indemnified by the grossly negligent.... the judge said so!
Whats the equivalent yield after cap gains and recapture?
and sdrl's divi is questionable moving forward and LINE has never impressed me... ( neither is growing the divi/dist also which may limit share appreciation)
Very High yields equal risky equity
ETP seems reasonable but its a 6.5% yield not an 8 or 9%
as I thought about the possibility of continued 1 cent increases and a doubling of the growth rate I came to the conclusion that there is a small possibility that they do move in this direction....
By doubling the rate they put the growth rate in-line/ahead of the newly stated Kinder policy.... but Kinder has a policy of paying out every last cent of available cash flow where we know the exact opposite is true here
I continue to believe that the new KMI is rather overvalued and will see an equalization with EPDs mkt cap
are you implying that we will continue to see 1 cent per Q?... IF that were to happen the dist growth rate would double..... I don't see them doing that... but they could stick to the halves and give us a special 1/4.... 1/2 or 1 cent special which would keep the annualized rate in full cent increments
The real world reality is that most entering that type of security has income well in excess of $73K which more than equalizes the distribution/dividend
Less than $73K on a combined income in the real world and I don't know where one would find $.50 to invest..... and factor in that most small income investors invest through 401Ks if they invest at all and stocks are rarely an option for "low" income investors in those vehicles
Those that are looking at yield producing equities have significant 2014 type income and $73K is nothing in 2014 terms... not to mention those with the really big bucks/incomes have to pay income rates on dividends which destroys KMI as an alternative.... so maybe the guy buying 100 shares (more than 5% of income for a less than $73K earner) if they can afford it considers KMI.... IF I'm a Dr. with a decent portfolio and I'm looking to shelter $250K do I like EPDs 3.7% tax differed yield or do I like KMIs $4.5-5% yield where I could be paying 30+% Fed + 8-10% State..... ouch.......
Sheltering income from taxes will always be a priority of investors
A republican house will never allow that
Look at the financials... EPD has Greater revenue... greater profit.... and less tax than the combined Kinder Franchise
yet Kinder's combined mkt cap now sits above $100 billion... and EPDs is $70 Billion.. Kinder is more than 43% greater cap... how would a 43+% pop in the EPD unit price feel
There's gonna be some movement towards equalization and now matter how you slice it EPD wins because IF our unit price increase dramatically EPDs cost of capital goes lower still.... Kinder decreases... and the cost goes right back up wiping out the reason for the deal in the first place

It was the city I had known before;
The ancient, leprous town where mongrel throngs
Chant to strange gods, and beat unhallowed gongs
In crypts beneath foul alleys near the shore.
The rotting, fish-eyed houses leered at me
From where they leaned, drunk and half-animate,
As edging through the filth I passed the gate
To the black courtyard where the man would be.
The dark walls closed me in, and loud I cursed
That ever I had come to such a den,
When suddenly a score of windows burst
Into wild light, and swarmed with dancing men:
Mad, soundless revels of the dragging dead –
And not a corpse had either hands or head!
the headless corpse, "leave my house", shaping Cuza, we get tricked, there's something you've both overlooked, "Draculian harmonics", old Slavonic, he can't be both ignorant and knowledgeable, psychological warfare, Molasar is so much smarter, Cuza is super-manipulative, double bluff, the Dracula mystique, Molasar has to be telepathic, Bela Lugosi, Christopher Lee, Woermann mentions having seen a pirated version of Nosferatu, Molasar was aware of Cuza's previous visits, he's had a lot of time to think, bad dreams, he's not interested in crumbs, the Popes forgot about it, the battery for the enchantment of the keep, the evil events begin on April 30th (Walpurgisnacht), the birds as a barometer of evil, no sequel possible, a blue winged bid with a beak full of straw, Moroi, Highlander, Highlander II (the worst movie ever made), "that's the quickening McLeod", a Spanish Egyptian with a Scottish accent, where did Highlander come from?, magic swords drinking power, a katana for cutting wasabi, 1980s movies came out of nowhere (seemingly), Elric (Michael Moorcock), Highlander: The Series, The Red One by Jack London, collecting heads, headless soldiers are unthinking soldiers, puppets of dark sorcery, vampires have the power to heal?, True Blood, did Cuza get the illness as a part of Molasar's long game?

Review of The Savage Tales of Solomon Kane

The Savage Tales of Solomon Kane
By Robert E. Howard; Narrated by Paul Boehmer
Publisher: Tantor Audio
[UNABRIDGED] – 12 hours, 30 minutesThemes: / pulp / fantasy / hero / short stories / Publisher summary:
With Conan the Cimmerian, Robert E. Howard created more than the greatest action hero of the twentieth century—he also launched a genre that came to be known as sword and sorcery. But Conan was not the first archetypal adventurer to spring from Howard's fertile imagination.
He was…a strange blending of Puritan and Cavalier, with a touch of the ancient philosopher, and more than a touch of the pagan…. A hunger in his soul drove him on and on, an urge to right all wrongs, protect all weaker things…. Wayward and restless as the wind, he was consistent in only one respect—he was true to his ideals of justice and right. Such was Solomon Kane.
Collected in this volume are all of the stories that make up the thrilling saga of the dour and deadly Puritan: "Skulls in the Stars," "The Right Hand of Doom," "Red Shadows," "Rattle of Bones," "The Castle of the Devil," "Death's Black Riders," "The Moon of Skulls," "The One Black Stain," "The Blue Flame of Vengeance," "The Hills of the Dead," "Hawk of Basti," "The Return of Sir Richard Grenville," "Wings in the Night," "The Footfalls Within," "The Children of Asshur," and "Solomon Kane's Homecoming."
I don't normally seem to enjoy older works of Sci-Fi and Fantasy, and unfortunately, things were no different here. I was never a Conan fan growing, so I'd never read any of Mr. Howard before. The audiobook collection stars with an obituary or memorium written by H.P. Lovecraft with whom Mr. Howard apparently corresponded.
Mr. Howard is probably best known for his character Conan, but Solomon Kane is often credited as the first "Sword & Sorcery" character.
In this collection of stories Solomon Kane fights Pirates, Ghosts, Vampires, Sorcerors, Harpies and more. Solomon Kane wields daggers, pistols a sword, and in later stories, a magical staff. Sounds like it would be great! Unfortunately I was mostly bored. The best story of the bunch for me was The Children of Asshur, which was only a fragment and therefore ends somewhat abruptly. I would have liked to see where Mr. Howard intended to go with that story.
There are certainly things to like here. The writing isn't bad and the adventures are certainly varied enough, but it just seemed like not much really happens most of the time. And then there is the racism. You can pull out the usual excuses, when the book what written, or the fact that the racism portrayed is probably accurate to the characters themselves. That doesn't change the fact for me that it kept pulling me out of the stories. It's not in every story, but is present in most, especially those where Solomon Kane travels to Africa. Many times it seemed like an unnecessary aside, rather than an important plot point for or character motivation.
All in all, as I believe these stories are in public domain you might be better off picking one or two to check out rather than the whole collection. I think the best complete story was The Hills of the Dead, where Kane first gets his magic staff and fights a horde of vampires.

Medicaid Expansion Debate Ahead in Illinois HouseCHICAGO (AP) - The Illinois House is gearing up to consider a key part of President Barack Obama's health care law, an expansion of Medicaid that would provide coverage to low-income adults who don't have children at home.
House Democrats say failure to expand Medicaid would lead to unintended consequences. A Cook County program would be in jeopardy. And Illinois employers would be exposed to tax penalties of up to $106 million.
Republicans say they have concerns about future costs.
Thousands of uninsured Illinois residents would be newly eligible for coverage, with the federal government paying for their care the first three years.
The state Senate has approved the expansion and Gov. Pat Quinn supports it. A House committee is scheduled to hear it Tuesday.
The bill is SB26. Online: http://www.ilga.gov

The Jefferson Bible : the life and morals of Jesus of Nazareth
by Thomas Jefferson
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
"I too have made a wee little book, from the same materials, which I call the Philosophy of Jesus. it is a paradigma of his doctrines, made by cutting the texts out of the book, and arranging them on the pages of a blank book, in a certain order of time or subject. a more beautiful or precious morsel of ethics I have never seen. it is a document in proof that I am a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus, very different from the Platonists, who call me infidel, and themselves Christians and preachers of the gospel, while they draw all their characteristic dogmas from what it's Author never said nor saw. they have compounded from the system heathen mysteries a system beyond the comprehension of man, of which the great reformer of the vicious ethics and deism of the Jews, were he to return on earth, would not recognise one feature. if I had time I would add to my little book the Greek, Latin and French texts, in columns side by side, and I wish I could subjoin a translation of Gassendi's Syntagma of the doctrines of Epicurus, which, notwithstanding the calumnies of the Stoics, and caricatures of Cicero, is the most rational system remaining of the philosophy of the ancients, as frugal of vicious indulgence, and fruitful of virtue as the hyperbolical extravagancies of his rival sects." — Thomas Jefferson to Charles Thomson, 9 January 1816 [PTJ:RS, 9:340-342]
" . . . the greatest of all the Reformers of the depraved religion of his own country, was Jesus of Nazareth. abstracting what is really his from the rubbish in which it is buried, easily distinguished by it's lustre from the dross of his biographers, and as separable from that as the diamond from the dung hill, we have the outlines of a system of the most sublime morality which has ever fallen from the lips of man . . . I have sometimes thought of translating Epictetus (for he has never been tolerably translated into English) of adding the genuine doctrines of Epicurus from the Syntagma of Gassendi, and an Abstract from the Evangelists of whatever has the stamp of the eloquence and fine imagination of Jesus. the last I attempted too hastily some 12. or 15. years ago. it was the work of 2. or 3. nights only at Washington, after getting thro' the evening task of reading the letters and papers of the day." — Thomas Jefferson to William Short, 31 October 1819
"I separate therefore the gold from the dross; restore to him the former, & leave the latter to the stupidity of some, and roguery of others of his disciples. of this band of dupes and impostors, Paul was the great Coryphaeus, and first corrupter of the doctrines of Jesus. these palpable interpolations and falsifications of his doctrines led me to try to sift them apart. I found the work obvious and easy, and that his part composed the most beautiful morsel of morality which has been given to us by man . . . I read them as I do those of other antient and modern moralists, with a mixture of approbation and dissent." — Thomas Jefferson to William Short, 13 April 1820
"it is surely time for men to think for themselves, and to throw off the authority of names so artificially magnified . . . this free exercise of reason is all I ask for the vindication of the character of Jesus. we find in the writings of his biographers matter of two distinct descriptions. first a ground work of vulgar ignorance, of things impossible, of superstitions, fanaticisms, & fabrications. intermixed with these again are sublime ideas of the supreme being, aphorisms and precepts of the purest morality & benevolence, sanctioned by a life of humility, innocence, and simplicity of manners, neglect of riches, absence of worldly ambition & honors, with an eloquence and persuasiveness which have not been surpassed. these could not be inventions of the grovelling authors who relate them. they are far beyond the powers of their feeble minds. they shew that there was a character, the subject of their history, whose splendid conceptions were above all suspicion of being interpolations from their hands. can we be at a loss in separating such materials, & ascribing each to it's genuine author? the difference is obvious to the eye and to the understanding, and we may read; as we run, to each his part; and I will venture to affirm that he who, as I have done, will undertake to winnow this grain from it's chaff, will find it not to require a moment's consideration. the parts fall asunder of themselves as would those of an image of metal & clay. There are, I acknolege, passages not free from objection, which we may with probability ascribe to Jesus himself; but claiming indulgence for the circumstances under which he acted. his object was the reformation of some articles in the religion of the Jews, as taught by Moses." — Thomas Jefferson to William Short, 4 August 1820
Truly a fast read. I think all the essentials for following in Christ's path can be found here. I have always thought Jefferson was a little misunderstood by those who have generally read history, and much maligned by those who didn't dig deeper. Those who didn't dig deeper really don't have much of an understanding of theism and its break from religion and religious practices.
Really interesting--not only the history of the book and of Jefferson's philosophy but actually the Bible itself. It's interesting to read the French text alongside the English (unfortunately, I can't read Greek or Latin), and it's also interesting to read just the moral philosophy of Christianity with the supernatural completely removed. I actually found that portion of the book much more engaging than I thought I would. Well worth the read.
This book is what it is. No miracles, no supernatural acts. This Jesus of Nazareth speaks with a sparseness and type of authority that convinces better than waiting for water to turn to wine.
I place more value in this attempt to uncover the real Christ than I do in the Jesus Seminar theologians "votes." Especially helpful are the citations at the end of the book.
Basically a "copy and paste" version of the highlights of the four gospels without all the repetition. It is a very short, condensed version of Christ's life starting with the birth of Jesus, goes through his childhood, selecting the diciples, beatitudes, Lord's prayer, and several of the more famous parables - the widow's mite, the adulteress, the good samaritan, the ten virgins. ends with the last supper and the crucifixion. Not a work of scripture that I would study intently or read again, but it was ok for a brief overview of the life of Christ.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0807077143, Hardcover)We must reduce our volume to the simple evangelists, select, even from them, the very words only of Jesus. There will be remaining the most sublime and benevolent code of morals which has ever been offered to man.—Thomas Jefferson
Featuring an introduction by Forrest Church, this reissue of The Jefferson Bible offers extraordinary insight into the logic of Thomas Jefferson and the Gospel of Jesus. Working in the White House in 1804, Jefferson set out to edit the Gospels in order to uncover the essence of true religion in the simple story of the life of Jesus. Jefferson was convinced that the authentic message of Jesus could be found only by extracting from the Gospels Jesus's message of absolute love and service, rather than the miracle of the Annunciation, Virgin Birth, or even the Resurrection. Completed in 1819, this little book is the remarkable result of Jefferson's efforts.
(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:31:22 -0400)
Contains the chronicles of Jesus from the New Testament, selected and arranged from the original text by President Jefferson himself.

7 Weekend Snacks Under 100 Calories
We often plan for a relaxing and rejuvenating weekend starting with greasy appetizers and ending with sugar-loaded desserts. This mindless indulging in calorie-rich weekend snacks almost ruins our entire week of healthy eating. How about changing this unhealthy cycle and opting for low fat and low calorie snacks this weekend? Instead of jumping for that jumbo bar of candy, try these simple snack recipes that are not only easy to make but also high in taste and nutrients. What's more, these snacks are all worth 100 calories or less, helping you stay healthy throughout the weekend. *Images courtesy: © Thinkstock photos/ Getty Images

This Sunday marks the 24th annual OutFest block party in the Gayborhood. Besides all the fabulous out-and proud-celebrating and gay kiki-ing , there will be plenty of killer performances set to add even more color to an already rainbow-filled afternoon. One of those performers is Philly-bred singer-songwriter J Carson, who is returning to town from Los Angeles, where he is currently working to make a name for himself in the mainstream music business.
I caught up with Mr. Carson this week, and he couldn't be more excited to be coming back to perform for his Philly brethren. You can catch him on the OutFest mainstage on Sunday at 1:20 p.m., followed by an evening performance at Icandy. Until then, you can catch up with him in our fun little Q&A. Keep reading to hear what he's been up to since moving to L.A., how being gay in the music industry has been a challenge for him, and why he calls Britney the "S" word. (Gasp!)

happy mother's day with the song "mamma" by c.a. bixIO
What could be a better gift for a mother on a Mother's day than to hear her child sing: "Mamma, son tanto felice" ("Mommy, I am so happy")?
These are the lyrics from a well known Italian traditional song "Mamma" composed by legendary Cesare Andrea Bixio and performed by numerous famous singers such as Luciano Pavarotti, Andrea Bocelli, Richard Tucker and many more.
Precisely this song was ingeniously used for the last year's Mother's day campaign for the Falabella Retail, one of the largest retail companies in Latin America.
IDM Music and Bixio Music Group licensed the song "Mamma" for the territories of Colombia, Peru and Chille, in a lovely and charming video commercial which you can see by clicking HERE.
Happy Mother's Day 2012!
Congratulations to IDM's author Tamara Obrovac for winning the Porin award for the best female vocal performance with the songs "Titanic" and "Tango i ča ča ča" from her album "Madirosa" recorded with Transhistria ensemble.
We are also happy to announce that Zdenko Bašić and Manuel Šumberac were awarded Porin for the best CD artwork for the album "Svijet Glamura" by Hladno Pivo.
For more info please visit the official pages of the PORIN awards.
Jack White's "Blunderbuss" debuts no.1

Only a week after the release, the album reached number 1 on the UK album sales chart, overthrowing Adele's "21" after a long time.

Umpires have an uncanny ability to avoid getting hit by baseballs, base runners or fielders, but occasionally there will be an unfortunate mishap. Hunter Wendelstedt was the victim of one of these rare player-umpire collisions Saturday night when he was run over at first base by the Orioles' Adam Jones.
And…DOWN GOES HUNTER WENDELSTEDT.
How did that even happen? Watching the clip, it seems to be mostly Adam Jones' fault. Jones is running out a routine play at first when the ball gets away. So, Jones has to suddenly shift gears from pulling up at first to taking off for second, and he doesn't see Wendelstedt there in his normal umpire position.
It's just one of those things. Jones said after the game (via The Baltimore Sun):
Parts of the game, man, I don't know. He's all right, so that's all that matters.
No one was hurt, Jones' progress wasn't impeded, the game wasn't affected. So, basically it was a non-play. But try telling that to Hunter Wendelstedt's tailbone. That particular body part probably doesn't feel too good this morning. It probably isn't fun being laughed at by a stadium full of people either, but he's an umpire, he can take it.

History Repeating Itself in Connecticut Governor's Race
(WASHINGTON) — Four years ago, Dan Malloy and Tom Foley had the tightest election in Connecticut's history, with Malloy winning the governor's race by about 6,000 votes.
Now, the two look headed for a similarly tight brawl.
According to a new Quinnipiac poll out Wednesday, Gov. Malloy has 43 percent of likely voters while GOP challenger Foley has 42 percent. Independent candidate Joe Visconti has 9 percent.
The results are similar to Quinnipiac's poll from earlier this month.
There is a wide gender gap so Malloy will know who to thank if he does win. He leads Foley 51 to 32 percent among women, while Foley leads Malloy 53 to 34 percent among men.
With just two weeks to go, 81 percent of Connecticut voters say their mind is made up.

COLLIER COUNTY, Fla.- The secret is out: Gulf Coast High School's marching band will be perform at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.
This is the second time they've applied. Now, they'll be one of five or six high schools nationwide to participate.
"I'm tired of keeping this secret, so I'm happy that today is the big day we get to reveal to the students and the community," said Steve DeLadurantey, the Gulf Coast High School Band Director.
One by one, the marching band piled into the band room to hear a secret worthy of national recognition.
"It is with great pride, it is with great pleasure, to announce this morning that for the first time in this school district the Gulf Coast High School Shark marching band has been selected to represent the great state of Florida and perform in New York City at the 2015 Macy's Day Parade," said DeLadurantey.
Besides the screams of excitement, came tears of joy. Students said the feeling was indescribable.
"It's fantastic. I've been watching it for a while and the fact that I'll be on TV, 50 million people that's a lot so, I'm really looking forward to it," said Charles Coffey, a Sophomore at Gulf Coast High School.
"Wow! I cant believe that we would be chosen, especially for something like this. It's just so special," said Freshman Jacob Mattarella.
"Our goal is to have every single kid go," said DeLadurantey. "We don't want to have one student not be able to afford to go on this historic trip."
And now the countdown begins.
There are nearly 330 kids in the band, according to the director, but they can't get there without your help. The band needs to raise $500,000 in the next 18 months.
